decrease the value.
6. If you are using more than one light source, select the next light tab and continue to
position it.
Using Colored Lights
By default, light sources emit a white light. However, with 3D model and Z space composite
containers you can change the color of the light to give lit objects a colored tint.
To change the color of the light:
1. Select the Lights tab of the 3D container.
2. Do one of the following:
t Click the color chip and select a color from the Color dialog box.
t Enter RGB values into the numerical field.
t Use the eyedropper to pick a color from the screen.
Setting the Ambience of a Scene
When using a 3D model container, you can set the ambience for each light source. It affects
the whole image evenly. Ambience refers to the diffuse, non-directional light applied to the
image before additional light sources are added. It affects the whole image evenly and is
unaffected by other lighting parameters.
